You can check the model online to confirm safety. I have this one and the smaller unit. Both are safe.

You can just use crock pot liners…make clean up a lot easier too.

I've seen some articles calling into question the safety of the liners too, although I haven't done any research to see if there's any veracity to those claims since I use neither a crockpot nor liners.

Well, see, you just have to ask yourself "am I more of an old-school kind of person, who gets OG lead poisoning? Or am I a cutting-edge trendsetter, who gets sick from the latest toxic plastic of the week?"

Cooking something for a long time doesn’t seem great to me, barring lead, I’d rather wash the pot

Edit: cooking it in a plastic liner, obvs. I skip words when i write…
